When it stops working try starting some music then pressing down on the grill where the speaker is and it will probably start working. Both my wife's Captivates and several friends have had intermittent speaker issues. It's like there is a bad connection in there.

So I installed RC4.2 everything was real laggy.

I changed to Platypus 3.0.8 alpha 6, phone became unrooted.

Re-flashed RC4.2 and then tried Glitch V14.B4 and B5. The lagginess is gone and battery life is great BUT now I'm getting charge of death, which I never had before.

Any suggestion on any other kernel options?

the funny thing is.. i was on that rom itself when i had this problem.. :) so i odin to stock and rooted then installed the hacksung 16.. not my phone rocks

Notification: Low Internal Storage

Can someone explain this when I'm only using up 740mb of the 1.9 we get for app installs?

I have 1.2gb left and over 7gb left on USB storage. And I've seen some say clean cache..only had 7mb in cache. I've read that ics rooms use smaller partitioning size for apps storage but would like to know how it works...even though we get 2gb for internal storage do we actually get less on cm9 roms? It appears right around the 720mb mark of used space for internal storage I start to get the notification... I moved a bunch of apps over to SD (the internal SD USB storage space on the phone) and that worked right away but I'd love to know why we'd have to do this if we have a lot of room left? Is a large part of that 2gb being used up in a virtual way that is not being reported?

Thanks

I am using latest ICSSGS test kernel and now my phone is going to recovery randomly. I observed this twice while on charge. Approx. 90% charging at they time of reboot to recovery...
[Captivate Android Development] electech13:
I did look and found something close to this but I didn't think the fix mentioned applied to this exact issue. The main data fix mentioned here and there is referring to this issue Im describing?

Btw I always try to search and research before posting technical questions.

Thanks

OK just checked it again. I guess the original data fix.zip is for this issue now that I've read a different description of it. But many says they get performance issues afterwards so should I do the fix or keep moving apps to SD instead? What's preferred solution here?

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] capocaccia:
It's a known issue. Read their support page and they have a fix.

[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
Sadly its a side effect of ICS. The reduce performance isn't always noticeable. The same zip will restore the symlink if your phone slows down. If I where you I would consider to look at your apps and delete does that you don't use.
[Captivate Android Development] ptesmoke:
i know this is slightly off topic but im looking for a quick solid answer. heres my dilemma...

my data is completly bonkers...no matter what modem i flash im stuck on H constantly and my phone heats up.

my solution is to odin back to stock and reinstall ics fresh. and i plan to do a master clear as well.

now...that being said i am away from home on business (florida keys..) i am using an att sim with prepaid data while i am here.

i have no laptop with me..but tonight i will have access to wifi and a laptop for about 2 hours. i know i can pull it off but i need sone serious links to the files i will need. if someone could please please help me out.

my captivate is a rogers cell...and ill be back on rogers after the trip. so i would prefer to odin to rogers but honestly if it makes no difference i will flash an att odin. im pretty sure im already on rogers gb bootloaders.

the laptop i will have access to is unfortunetly a vista machine...dunno yet if its 32 or 64 bit. the wifi will be fast so it wont take me long to pull files. thank you so much for any help guys i really hope i can get this sorted tonight.

my plan is to odin to stock...master clear..hopefully have an odin with cwm recovery in the kernel so i can just flash into cwm and flash ics back...

cheers and i will do sone massive thanks buttons!
[Captivate Android Development] silvertag:
Choose your poison here to odin back.

I think the biggest headache you will have is finding the right drivers for the usb on Vista if its 64 bits.

I don't understand your issue. H is supposed to be on IF that area has hsupa on att. Heat up can be a TON of other factors like different ambient temp, OC, voltage settings, apps spazing your cpu, etc.
[Captivate Android Development] ptesmoke:
but H constantly? im used to it idling on 3g when no data is being transmitted then it switching to H once data is needed....

also i have a feeling my buddies laptop is 32bit..
[Captivate Android Development] ptesmoke:
ive reflashed and reflashed and my H is always lit up with no data transfer. unless rogers works differently? cuz i know when im home on rogers it idles on 3G until something needs data..then it fires up to H. sorry for clogging this thread but i hugely appreciate the advice guys. can you att guys confirm for me your H is lit up all the time? every so often ill see it try to go to 3g but bounces right back to H within a second.
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
Yes H constantly. I'm on ATT and when ever I'm on I9000 modem and the location supports it its on H.
[Captivate Android Development] capocaccia:
I have the exact opposite problem as this guy. I'm stuck on edge. I had h before but now no matter what modem I try I'm stuck on edge. Any idea how I can fix this?

Thanks for the info but what is better to do between the two options of either using the data fix zip or moving some files over to the internal SD card USB drive part?

I deleted a few apps and moved some over and now my internal is down to 395mb and over 1.5 free. So I have over 300 mb again to install new apps before it starts giving me the error again so is that preferable or is only installing to the the phone storage recommended? Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] ptesmoke:
ok thnx bro....is those 32 bit drivers?
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
I don't think moving to SD helps. The phone isn't physically out of space and folder in the system has a specific amount of space and it's symlink. I could be wrong. Haven't gotten it since RC3.x and I'm currently on AOKP from I9000 and can't confirm my suspicion.

This has also been said in several posts. Yes it's a known issue and you have to use an old version of maps to make it work, search this thread because the links were posted this same week so you won't have to go too far.
[Captivate Android Development] capocaccia:
Agreed with that being a question that is too frequently asked.

But for the kid that asked, icy glitch is the only ICS kernel available other than platypus for our phones. Thats why you will only get one answer and your question was deemed dumb.

Yes, I'm well aware of the Google maps issue already that's why I hadn't mentioned it. What I was asking is if anybody else is getting sensor issues in say the GPS status app, pertaining to the magnometer.

Anyhow, I'll prod at it and share what I find should anybody else have a "confused" little cappy.
[Captivate Android Development] electech13:
Can u explain a bit better?

Firstly moving a few apps to internal SD did work to stop the low storage msg. I freed up 300 mbs so I assume Itll be a while before I get the msg again so with that being said is it better to do what I did and move apps to stop message or use the data fix instead?

And when u mention symlink what exactly is that referring to and how does it work?
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
Symlink is the connection of 2 folders. I believe the one that fixes it is the Symlink between /data and /datadata (not sure lack computer to check atm) one of these folders doesn't house each app but the fact you have the fact you have the app. But something about ICS takes more space and you get the low space message when you have plenty.

The moving to external sd was just a theory I had, and if you just moved apps to external and not deleted any then voids my theory.

I could be completely off on all of this. I'm no deception and I don't have access to any resources atmosphere to verify.

Flashed to RC4.2 last night and everything went well. Today I tried to upload a 50MB video to Facebook over WiFi. As soon as I do that all other devices attached to the router, wired and wireless would have no Internet connection. At first I thought it was my ISP having problems. But when I turned off WiFi on my phone Internet is magically working again.

I thought the Facebook app was bad so I tried sending a large attachment to myself with Gmail on the phone. As soon as I hit send Internet would go out. I rebooted the router (Actiontec V1000H) but it didn't help. Then I tried to upload a small photo (1MB) onto Facebook using WiFi and it worked fine!

This has never happened before, and I have used Eclair, Froyo, GB (CM7) on this phone and they all worked fine. I am completely baffled... Does it have anything to do with the WiFi problems ICSSGS was having before?

I just moved some apps over to my internal sd card and then started installing some apps that i have the .apk's for. My buddy gave me a disc with about 1000 Android apps and i installed about 25 of em. Mostly smaller, basic apps but now I'm stuck in a restarting loop. I get into the os and before long (maybe 1-2 minutes) while still loading up all services, etc, the phone restarts right back to bootloader. I have very limited ability to do anything in the little time i get before it restarts to try and stop services, uninstall apps,etc...

Any idea what i can/should do? I assume I'm gonna have to wipe and reflash but I'd like to backup a few apps,settings first if i could...

When I'm not on wifi I pretty much never have blue icons and I regularly have the same issue when on wifi but not nearly as bad.

what might cause a nandroid backup to freeze half way?

I just recently had to reflash this ICS again and got most of my apps re-installed and settings taken care of and wanted to a new nandroid backup of this fresh install to go back to in case of issues anytime soon but it's not working... and i've done many backups and recoveries before with no issues..and recently too...of this same ICS release/kernel,etc...

it starts just fine and does the backup of:

boot image

recovery image

system

and then on data it gets to about 3/4 of the way and then just stays there...left it for up to an hour and it never moved from that spot.. didn't give error or reboot or anything...just stays... i restarted myself and tried again and it appears to have gotten stuck at the exact same spot..

any ideas?
